Section 4 Normal Procedures 4.12 ACROBATIC MANEUVERS 4.12.1 GENERAL Pilot´s Operating Handbook EXTRA 330LX NOTE Prior to executing these maneuvers tighten harnesses and check all loose items are stowed. Start the maneuvers at safe altitude and maximum continuous power setting if not otherwise noted. For maneuver limits refer to Section 2 LIMITATIONS. After termination of acrobatic maneuvers the artificial horizon (if installed) must be reset if possible.
Pilot´s Operating Handbook EXTRA 330LX Section 4 Normal Procedures - Segment line 90° up: Any entry speed may be used. Out of a horizontal pull-up at 200 KIAS (370 km/h) the vertical penetration will be 2.500 ft. The speed will gradually decrease to 0. NOTE In extremely long lines a RPM decay may occur. This is related to a loss of oil pressure. Positive g´s should be pulled immediately in order to protect the engine. Oil pressure will return immediately.
Section 4 Normal Procedures 4.12.3 Pilot´s Operating Handbook EXTRA 330LX SPIN To enter a spin proceed as follows: - Reduce speed, power idle - When the plane stalls: - Kick rudder to desired spin direction - Hold ailerons neutral - Stick back (positive spinning), stick forward (negative spinning) The plane will immediately enter a stable spin. - Ailerons against spin direction will make the spin flatter. - Ailerons into spin direction will lead to a spiral dive.

Pilot´s Operating Handbook EXTRA 330LX 909.1 Section 909 ARTEX ME-406 ELT GENERAL To improve the passive security, the EXTRA 330LX can be equipped with an optional Emergency Locator Transmitter ARTEX ME-406. In the event of a crash, the ME-406 activates automatically (automatic fixed „AF“ configuration), and transmits the standard swept tone on 121.5 MHz lasting until battery power is gone. This 121.5 MHz signal is mainly used to pinpoint the beacon during search and rescue operations.
Section 909 ARTEX ME-406 ELT 909.3 Pilot´s Operating Handbook EXTRA 330LX EMERGENCY PROCEDURES • In case of a forced landing turn the remote switch in the rear panel to the "ON" position prior to touch down. Although the ELT will be activated automatically after an aircraft accident or forced landing with high G-force, • turn additionally the remote switch in the rear panel to the "ON" position.
Pilot´s Operating Handbook EXTRA 330LX 909.7 Section 909 ARTEX ME-406 ELT SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The ELT installation consists of the ELT unit and a buzzer, both fastened to the fuselage structure aft of the back seat, an antenna located on the main fuselage cover behínd the cockpit, and a remote switch with LED indication located on the instrument panel. The switch has the positions ARM and ON. 909.7.
Section 909 ARTEX ME-406 ELT Pilot´s Operating Handbook EXTRA 330LX 909.8 HANDLING, SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 909.8.1 TRANSMITTER TEST ARTEX recommends that the ELT be tested every 1-2 months. Follow the steps outlined in the 909.8.2 SELF TEST paragraph. NOTE The self-test time is accumulated in a register on the battery pack. The register records activation time in 30 second increments so all activations will count as at least 30 seconds, even if the actual time is much less.
Pilot´s Operating Handbook EXTRA 330LX Section 909 ARTEX ME-406 ELT • If this error code persists there may be a problem with the antenna installation. This can be checked with a VSWR meter. Check the antenna for opens, shorts, resistive ground plane connection. 4 Flashes Low power detected. Occurs if output power is below about 33 dBm (2 watts) for the 406 signal or 17 dBm (50 mW) for the 121.5 MHz output. Also may indicate that 406 signal is off frequency.

Pilot´s Operating Handbook EXTRA 330LX Section 910 NAT AA83-001 Intercom ICS VOL/PILOT VOX This control is a fluted concentric rubber knob on the top of the panel. The inner (front) knob is the ICS VOL control, which is used to set intercom volume. It is at minimum volume when fully counterclockwise (ccw). As the knob is rotated clockwise (cw), the ICS volume for the crew increases. The ICS is muted during transmit operations.
Section 910 NAT AA83-001 Intercom 910.7.2 Pilot´s Operating Handbook EXTRA 330LX OPERATION VOX OPERATION The VOX control is used to set the level of audio required to activate the microphones. The AA83-001 provides three modes of intercom operation, selected by the position of the VOX control. LIVE ICS When the VOX control is positioned fully ccw to the LIVE position, all mics will be live, and any sound picked up will be processed by the ICS system (hot mic).
Section 910 NAT AA83-001 Intercom Pilot´s Operating Handbook EXTRA 330LX The copilot will be unable to monitor any transceiver activity, although he retains full ICS and music functions. This mode is ‚fail-passive‘ meaning that it requires no power to operate and is the same mode the box goes into automatically when power is lost to the AA83-001.

Section 911 BECKER ATC 4401 Transponder Pilot´s Operating Handbook EXTRA 330LX Avoid selecting code 7500 and all codes in the 7600-7777 range. These trigger special indicators in automated facilities. Only the code 7500 will be decoded as the hijack code. An aircraft’s transponder code (if available) is utilized to enhance the tracking capabilities of the ATC facility, therefore care should be taken when making routine code changes.
Section 911 BECKER ATC 4401 Transponder Pilot´s Operating Handbook EXTRA 330LX 2 A permanent test runs in the background of the transponder operation. The built-in FPGA organizes the required resources for this.
